SPINACH & CASHEW PESTO
I couldn't find fresh basil at my local grocery store...and, pine nuts were $25.00 per pound! So, I improvised and used spinach and roasted cashew nuts instead. Even my husband loved this recipe (he had no idea there was spinach in it!)

Steps:

Transfer to a small pot and simmer over medium heat, stirring often, until the garlic is cooked (about 5 minutes). Toss pesto sauce with cooked linguine or your choice of pasta. Sprinkle grated parmesean or asiago cheese on top.
